All good points made here, on both sides. I don't agree that it's all Bush's fault; even though that seems to be the mantra of the Democrats. I'm one who really enjoys seeing everyone's view point. I've read both sides here and like I said I can agree with a little from both sides. What I can't agree with is Obama's 'socialistic" views on how to get us out of the recession. It's like he's going for the "NEW" New Deal. That worked out well. Common sense states that he can't raise taxes in this time of economic downturn....that's was concerns me. I think he still will. C'mon ask your self is that makes sense, you don't need an MBA for that. I heard a clip from a woman at an Obama rally say that everything will be ok once he gets elected. She won't have to worry about her mortgage or rising gas prices. Are you freakin' kidding me. This seems to be about 30% of his votes, they think he's the Messiah. Granted a smooth talker, who really appeals to undereducated folks. Here again, I don't think McCain is that great either, but I feel he's the lesser of two evils.

He seems to want to punish those for working hard and getting ahead. Why should I work hard when 40% is getting taken away and given to someone else. WE are heading for a socialist state, why we can't see that is amazing.
